 Thankyou to everybody who left reviews on La Chant.They led me to paradise in the Loire.Finding the site is a little difficult.But well worth the effort. Syb.And Stu. Who own and run this site work from early morning to late at night and nothing is too much trouble for them. The Showers and toilets were always kept clean and well stocked with toilet paper and clean hand towels. There is a large splash pool kept spotless.The site has plenty of shade from large mature trees that are scattered about. Gates are kept secure and Bracken the friendly owners dog lets them know of all visitors. They have an outdoor bread oven, and have make your own pizza nights,they also cook evening meals. No pressure to attend. Everybody gets to meet up and have a great time eating lovely food prepared by Syb (Stu assiting !)with good wine from local vinyards, Extremely good value for money. We thoroughly enjoyed
Our stay with them,and will be returning as soon
As we can.I would highly recommenced Syb and Stu's great site to all.

We visited this site for 4 nights in July 2009. What can I say that hasn't already been said. Stu & Syb simply have it right here. Customer service, care, attention to detail are all 100%. Kids all playing cricket in the safe grounds, helping to collect the eggs from the chickens and enjoying their collection with bread delivered only moments earlier. I have always said that I would never return to any campsite regardless of how good as there are so many to see. With Le Chant D'Oiseau I am making an exception and we will be back in 2010 for 10 nights. I love this little place.

Wonderful site! Just returned wanted to stay longer but was fully booked. Nothing too much trouble. Cup of tea on arrival. Meals some evenings but no pressure to join in if you don't want to. Bracken(the dog) is great barking on arrival but once she meets you never barks again, does the rounds at mealtimes for any titbits.
Lots to do in local area Chateau at Breze different with underground caves and walkway.
Fireworks for Bastille Day in Samur where great. Thanks to Stu for advising us where to go for great view also for the warning that journey home was a nightmare!
Bread ordered in evening and collect in morning from Syb at your convenience. I tried one of the pain almond mentioned in a previous review are gorgeous and willpower needs to kick in otherwise you would put on pounds!

We spent 5 nights at the le chant,
This is a site I would recommend without a single second of delay, Syb and Stu are probably the hardest workers I have ever met, they try very hard and manage to please everyone and make people feel welcome there the 'little piece of heaven' in France, They organise site meals, wine tasting, pizza evenings, which gave me break from the bbq,
We took 3 kids with us and they loved it, especially with the chickens and family pets roaming around, The site is very safe, gates are always locked so you could let the kids roam or just chase the chickens without worrying, lots to do around the area.
The pitches are partially shaded which is ideal for a tent, facilities are clean and adequate plenty of hot water,what more does anyone one want. We loved it.
I can honestly say we will be back!,

Our second visit to the site, this time with our grandson, we spent 3 days relaxing at this gem of a site.
Stu has now added a pizza oven and a couple of BBQ's plus a pool table to keep the kids happy, make sure you have a pocket full of 1 euros.

Not much to add to review by Maryn as we were there at the same time. Very relaxing holiday but if you have energetic teens then I can recommend the Musee des Blindes (tank museum) in Saumur which the boys found very interesting, and the adventure park near Angers which will really tire them out.

What a holiday! We needed to chill out and that's what we did. Stu & Syb have a little haven here for sure with the right balance of everything. Meals twice a week if you want to partake, fresh eggs & fresh bread etc delivered daily - try the Pain Almond.Litre of local wine in a carafe for €2.50 of an evening and you're well away! Kids loved the pool and table tennis and the can crusher! Oh and the chickens - DD is a real mimic bless her. Bracken was a delight even though we have a son very wary of dogs but she does need some serious lessons in rounding up chickens. Can recommend the 'find the cat' game in the evening after a tipple too many but that's another story. Shops handy locally (inc Pharmacy for anti-histamines and the like) with major supermarkets not too far away and the lovely town of Saumur offers so much - plenty of help and advise as needed from Stu & Syb plus leaflets available.
All in all we want to come back camping next year but want to try one of the family Gites which we had a look at before we left, for the Photography week in October half term. A really well run family site which epitomises real camping & caravanning with just the right balance of modern facilities to make the holiday one to remember!

We had a lovely relaxing time at Le chant.
We thought this site was going to be too relaxing for our 2 daughters but turned out they liked this site more than the others we visited on this trip to France.
1st day was a bit disappointing but only due to rain as we arrived on site after we had a long journey it would have been nice to relax outside but this was no fault of the owners.
We were greeted by there dog Bracken who is absolutely gorgeous and Stu even cut a couple of tree branches down for us as the branches were touching the motorhome roof.
Wish we could have stopped for longer.
The area is wonderful we visited Angers and Tours on our 4 day visit to this area and found no problems parking the motorhome anywhere.
Thanks for making our visit a enjoyable hope to see you again sometime.

Just back from 17 nights at this piece of Paradise. Arrived to a warm welcome from Stu & Syb who are wonderful hosts. Shown to what in my opinion was 1 of the best pitches on site (equal amount of sun/shade). The toilets etc are small but perfectly adequate. Syb is constantly cleaning them and provides soap and towels. There is a rich variety of things to see & do in the immediate area. I could not rate this site more highly for a tranquil holiday.

We arrived after a rather tiring journey battling strong winds to a warm welcome by Syb and Stu, and much appreciated cup of tea! The site is largely level, though a bit lumpy over tree roots so levelling blocks may be useful. Free WIFI is available.
Toilets and showers were ok, but being unisex and 'intimate' some degree of open-mindedness is an advantage! The facilities are more akin to UK CLs than commercial sites.
Visiting Loire Chateaux may require a bit of a journey - Chenanceau is about 70 miles, but worth the effort. The castle at Saumur is unfortunately closed for renovation at the moment. Cycling in the area is very pleasant - mostly flat and the local historic trail around Mouliherne is easily cyclable from the site. The much-mentioned Bracken is indeed very friendly, and has free reign around the site, so be a bit beware if you or your kids are nervous around dogs.

I cant really add anything that has not already been said.
Stu and Syb have built a lovely site that is in a beautiful location,peaceful and close to attractions of the Saumur area.
Already planning a return visit in 2009 with our grandson.
Thanks for a great 2 weeks!

Great little site in the heart of France.
Stu and Syb couldn't be more helpful.
Perfect site to stay for a night or a week depending on your needs. We used the site for a 2 night stopover on our way to Royan (Charente-Maritime) and it certainly broke up the journey.
Fantastic quiet roads for cycling on and beautiful scenery around the site itself.
Check out our photo link from our member page to see pictures of the site if you are interested.

We stayed here for 4 nights. Stu and Syb and their lovely family made us really welcome. The shower/ toilet block was always clean and there was plenty of hot water. It is a really peaceful and friendly site and was the perfect base from which to visit the sites and sounds of the Loire Valley.

We spent a week here after promising ourselves we would visit since Stu and Syb set it up, finally we got there to be greeted by stu and made a cuppa by syb! Where else do you get that sort of welcome?
Le Chant is a lovely site, set in the midst of the Loire countryside, surrounded by forests and fields. Its very much a 'family' site and you do feel you are being welcomed into their garden. What a privilege it is too.
My kids loved the pool and used it despite the cold weather and rain( we were assured this was freak weather!) and the swings, especially the one right in front of our pitch in the shade of the trees.They spent much of their time making friends and exploring, playing with Bracken and the Kittens. It really was a pleasure to let them roam without worrying about their safety at all. You can see them from your pitch wherever you are or find them with a call.
We visited Saumur and the chateau several times and also the tank museum and the riding school on the outskirts for an equestrian display but had the weather been good we could quite happily have spent the whole week on the site doing very little,drinking the good local wines and having BBQ's in the sunshine! It really is a lovely place to relax.
We'd love to go back in the summer next year and hope we wont leave it so long before we return. Its not often we feel genuinely sad to go home but we left with very heavy hearts, especially as the hot weather returned as we were leaving!

We stayed at Stu & Sybs for two nights in April We were made very welcome by them both and Bracken. The small site is lovely the weather was nice first day then a bit wet. Thanks to Stu we cycled into the village to the supermarket which only took us twenty minutes each way which we enjoyed. We were invited to join them for a few drinks on the Saturday night the company was great. The site amenities were fine shower was quite adequate,the washing facilities fine.We were camped up near the house because the ground was a bit soft with the rain which was`nt a problem. I would recommend this site to anyone we will certainly go back hopefully next year.Bracken was lovely we did`nt mind him visiting us he was so friendly and our corgi did`nt mind him.Thank you both for the hospitality and the help from Stu with the tap .we loved being there We arrived home at the end of June after a great holiday touring France, Spain and Portugal.
